Map of damaged buildings in Mandalay, Myanmar. The amp combines an overview of a satellite image with a detailed inset. The extent of damage for individual building polygons is shown in shades of pink and red, from no damage (white) to 80–100 percent damage (red). The most damaged buildings are scattered throughout the city.
Satellite-based damage assessments for the Earthquake in Myanmar are beginning to trickle out. Here’s a section of Mandalay from Planet & Microsoft AI for Good.

16TB archive of data.gov has been released on @source.coop, featuring over 311,000 datasets collected during 2024 & 2025, a complete archive of federal public datasets.
An initiative of Radiant Earth, Source is proud to support efforts that make open data more accessible and usable for all.
#OnThisDay in 1927, Virginia Norwood was born. A physicist and mathematician, she invented the first multispectral scanner to obtain images of the Earth from space. The Landsat 1 satellite and its successors have been scanning the planet thanks to the work of the "mother of Landsat."
The #PalisadeFire in California, USA, seen from ignition yesterday until sunrise today. Seen by NOAA's GOES-18 weather sat, a vital tool for monitoring these fires.
Really dreadful situation - and several other fires pop up as well. Firefighters have a hard task.
What is the protocol on @bsky.app around 're-tweeting' a Twitter post...?

A focused national purpose achieved a lot in the 1960s. Today's Artemis timeline shifts, April 2026 for Artemis II's crewed lunar flyby and mid-2027 for Artemis III's Moon landing.
Public understanding and support of lunar return has never been more vital.
